Tomorrow will be a true “once in a blue moon” event as a full moon shines on Halloween night.
The last full moon on Halloween was back in 1951, and another bonus is that Saturday’s moon is a ‘blue moon’ – which means it is the second full moon to occur in a single calendar month.
Astronomy fans are on the lookout for photographs of this iconic event, as the next Halloween full moon isn’t expected until 2039.
Astronomy Ireland is calling on people around Ireland to send in their pictures for a possible feature in a major article in the next Astronomy Ireland magazine.
